i really respect that #11tyconf conf had speaker honorariums, despite being a free event.

it's super important for conferences to compensate all speakers, who spend dozens (sometimes hundreds) of hours preparing their talks.

personally, i chose to have my honorarium be donated to open source projects that i think need it more than me (namely @openwebdocs, @servo, @OddBird, and @vite)

Ever since @pauleveritt's #11tyConf talk and tutorial series, I've been tinkering to take some of those ideas a couple of steps further.

The first step is adding front matter validation to TSX layouts in #Eleventy 3 using #Zod.

Very good way to spend my Thursday and I enjoyed all of the talks!

I didn't recap all of them, just a few but rest assured I learned a bunch of things from every single one of the presenters.

Hey @henry just saw your talk at #11tyConf, loving the energy! 🔥🔥🔥

Too bad you only had 11 minutes, I'm currently exploring #WebMentions and would've loved to hear about it more in-depth. Did you already blog about this, by any chance?

To everyone else, here's the talk I'm talking about: https://www.youtube.com/live/iLxJ6PtuF9M?si=qYE7qhAIbnAO92yk&t=8534

What did you use for your slides? For a moment I thought #iaPresenter 🤔

Catching up with the #11tyConf this morning, UK time (time zone and family responsibilities meant I didn't attend live). Looks like it was a large and active audience, judging by the chat on YouTube. I thought I'd add my 2 cents to the 'how did you get to 11ty' topic. For me it was:

HTML > Geocities-like apps (can't recall which ones) > Radio Userland > Movable Type > WordPress > Hugo > Eleventy

(not counting code tools like Dreamweaver, FrontPage, VSCode, etc)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iLxJ6PtuF9M

I'm still hyped about everything that happened at #11tyconf. The talks were so great, and I'm once again keen to try out @eleventy in new ways.

Especially interested to try out the new ‘Eleventy Transform' option within the Eleventy Image plugin, allowing you to transform any `<img>` automatically into something more performant https://www.11ty.dev/docs/plugins/image/#eleventy-transform

Just at the end of #11tyConf I managed to implement a self-sorting custom collection for an events list on the Helsinki Pedestrians' Association's website (https://jalankulkijat.fi).

Here is the blog post on how I did it: https://samimaatta.fi/en/a-custom-collection-to-sort-events-with-eleventy/.

Thanks for the great tool @eleventy and @zachleat !

Light mode versus Dark mode

It doesn’t have to be this way. Some people have very real physical reasons to need one mode over another. The rest of us are also allowed to have our favourites, or might prefer light mode in some situations and dark in others.
